My Bombe uses initial ring setting of 26 26 26 (Z Z Z). It was not historically correct. Bletchley Park used initial indicator setting of A A A (01 01 01).

It returns only one stop, one more steckered pair and one more self-steckered letter. It is a question of how best to use precious bombe time. A bombe has three rows of 12 three-letchworth-scrambler sets. It can run three smaller menus in parallel. My menu has 10+1=11 links and uses one row. Two more jobs could be run together. The larger menu has 16 links and requires two rows leaving less capacity for other jobs. I am really keen to know how the Bletchley Park folks made such choices. | |
